Light Is Right.

The secretary OF the West Texas Med
ioal association, seeing fit to question
the authority, az published In the LIGHT.
that there are no regularly appointed
delegates (unless self appointed) to the
International Medical congress, the
LIGHT will publish the utterances of the
editor OF the journal, the official organ.
Of the American Medical association, n.
3. Davis, who Ia the president-elect,
proposed, OF the association. The item
In the LIGHT Was published for the ben
fit OF every doctor, dentist or scientific
man In the range OF Its influence, to tell
them that the congress IL not for the
benefit OF a chosen few, who had per-
verted or construed the meaning OF the
rules laid down by the association, and to
inform any or all who desired TO attend
that they will not be declared from AZ
tending the congress. The state medi-
cal association was In error or misin-
formed when II selected delegates and
Daniels Medical journal was In error
when it states that delegates would
have two votes, and the Express cor
respondent is In error In saying that
delegates are expected. Here is what
Mr.. Davis says, and his utterances are
certainly official: 1.-The congress shall
consist OF such members Of the regular
medical profession as shall have regis
tered and taken out their ticket Of adj
mission, and such other scientific men rs
the executive committee OF the congress
shall deem desirable to admit. This
rule plainly defining the conditions for
acquiring membership and partiCipa-
ton in the approaching congress, was
published In English, French and
German ann widely distributed
two years ago and was repub-
lished last year in July, in nearly
all the medical papers OF this country;
and yet we notice that some OF our state
and local medical societies have APP
pointed delegates Qtalics) to the con-
gress, and we are often receiving letters
making inquiries touching the same sub
jeot. Hence we have again quoted the
rule and wish to state explicitly that the
doors of the Ninth International Medi-
cal congress will be open to all members
Of the regular medical profession In all
countries where such profession exists,
by applying to the Registration com nit
tee at Washington, ID. c."
This ought TO settle the delegate busi-
ness

Sara Jewett fn Need.

NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-Much astonishment has been caused in theatrical circles by the knowledge of the fact that Sara Jewett, who only few years ago was one of the most prominent actresses upon the New York stnge, had applied to the Actors Fund for money to enable her to secure the neeessaries of life. MT. A. NJ. Palmer, who was Miss Jewett's manager in the days of her greatest prosperity, at once sent her his personal check for $150, sum the ssfund." It s.said that Miss Jewett has fallen victim to the opium habit and that she is no longer able to earn living by her profession. It is understood that MT. Ald- rich and other managers stand prepared to offer her good engagements if her bodily. and mental health should be restored, but her present. condition is said to offer small hope that this ean ever be accomplished.

THAT HAZING AT WILLIAMS Probably Only Little GuyIng Accord
 Ing to President Carter.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Oct. 4.-President Carter, who is in this city attending the American board meeting, was seen tonight in reference to the Choate hazing affair at Williams college. He said the faculty had taken no action on the matter and could take none without more definite information on which to proceed. He thought young Choate had not been abused, but had merely been subjected to a little guying. The newspaper accounts were grossly exaggerated and there were other influences such as anxiety about his studies which might have served to affect a lad of Choate's delicate constitution. Pres- ident Carter does not know the names of any of the participants in the hazing and has no idea who they are. He lays stress on the fact that voluntary action against hazing was taken by some of the best elements in the college early in the term.

"A Fl

 DUBLIN, Oct 4.-Crowds of people assem- bled at Giveedore to-day to witness the eVic- ton of Widow Bonar. The widows house was strongly barricaded and the bailiffs were ordered to force an entrance with crowbars. The occupants gave them warm reception, throwing boiling water in their faces and down their backs. When the bailiffs suc- ceeded in smashing in their front door an idiot boy dashed out of the house and vio- lently attacked them. The crowd of specta- tors, intensely excited, cursed the officers, but was restrained from acts of violenne by Father McFadden. Tie bailiffs burst holes in the sides of the house and the occu- pants replisd with another current of boiling water, the specta- tors cheering frantically. Finally the gable. with part of the roof, fell in. The inmates, cheered by the spectators, replied by throwing volley of stones at the police. The latter, after desperate effort, at last succeeded in entering the house and dragging out the tenants son in-law named Gallagher, who had only his shirt and trousers on. Gallagher's wife was also dragged out and both were carried to the barracks on doors. After the police had left the ssene the crowd renstated the tenants MT.

A
 dent and his Wife.
 ST. LOUIS, Oct. 4.-''Another day of Cleveland weather" remarked a member of the presidential party this morning as the sun broke through the windows of Lindell Hotel. Before nine o'clock President Cleve- land, escorted by 8 committeeman and 8 squad of mounted police, was driven to the court house, where he received the public for an hour and half. Many thousand per sons paid their respects and much enthusi- asm was manifested. At 10:30 car riages were in waiting to carry the presiden- tial party to the foot of Chestnut street to the steamer Baton Rouge. Here Mrs. Cleve- land escorted by 8 number of ladies and gentlemen, joined the President and prompts ly at II o'clock the boat steamed up the river to point where good view of the bridge would be obtained and afterward proceeded down stream, returning to the foot of Chest nut street. The afternoon was uneventful. The presidential party were escorted in car riages from the boat to the fair grounds, where they became the guests of the Fair as- sociation and Iunched with party of thirty or forty ladies and gentlemen in the club house. Lunch over, they proceeded to the grand stand and witnessed some trotting races. They returned to the hotel for dinner.
 In the evening the President and Mrs. Cleveland witnessed the grand street pageant of the Yelled Prophets, illustrating by twenty-two floats some of the events of bib- Heal history beginning with the dawn of his tory, the expulsion of Lucifer, Egyptian captivity, scenes of the Exodus, the Philis- tines. the prophets, events of Daniel, Jonah and Josiahs life, war scenes and ending with the famous Belshazzar feast. At o'clock the last car had passed by the Lindell Hotel balcony and the President and Mrs. Cleve- land were immediately conveyed to the Mer- chants Exchange building, in the great hall of which was to be held the Yelled Prophets ball. A trumpet call signalled their approach and they marched around the hall to the music 'fHail to the Chief" They were then escorted to seats on platform. Mrs. Cleve- land was attired in a ruby velvet dress, low neck, short sleeves. At 10 o'clock the trump eters announced the coming ot the Yelled Prophets and the promenaders gave way to his excellenoy and went followers. His ex- cellency led the procession, escorted by train of gaudily and richly dressed men bear. ing banners of strange device and arms of feaudhl days. They marched around the hall several times, and when that terminated the ball was opened. At Il o'clock the presidential party withdrew and were ses- corted immedirtelys to the depot and were soon on their way to Chicago.
